HX50V Shipping in US!

Just checked my pre-order on Sonystyle and it's set to ship tomorrow! Ordered it about a month ago. Having owned a HX9 and HX20V my expectations aren't sky high. Video quality should be great, as good as previous models hopefully. Photo quality will be so so, but adequate for my needs.

I'm really excited about the MI shoe. The new mic looks nice and I like the option to add an EVF even if said EVF costs as much as the camera. It's also nice to be able to use it to trigger flashes which would be perfect for some macro photography.
